For 2025 we are happy to offer Learn to Row sessions for individuals who are eager to learn to row or scull. Learn to row sessions will consist of 4 on the water sessions, either sculling or sweep rowing, over the course of 2 weeks. After Learn to Row training some scullers may want to join the club and continue with coached sessions.
